The Owanbe Thieves movie premiere, held at Filmhouse Circle Mall in Jakande, was a star-studded affair attended by celebrities, influencers, and industry insiders.
As the audience watched Fuji legend K1 De Ultimate play live, Eniola and Laide were spotted dancing excitedly with other spectators.
However, a video showed Eniola noticeably agitated when she saw Laide on the dance floor.
Badmus was heard stating in Yoruba, “Don’t film us together, we’re not friends.”
This incident is only the latest in a long-running feud between the two actresses.

A few hours after their video went viral, Laide took to her Instagram to share a screenshot of the messages Eniola sent to her over the night’s incident.
In the message, Eniola pointed out that she must not be in her colleague’s video or pictures and accused her of once posting a bad photograph on the channel.
Sharing the screenshot, Laide claimed that she was the one who made Eniola’s career and spent her hard-earned money on her when nobody wanted to accept her in Nollywood.
